Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

Su Mingjin glared at him fiercely, "It's your handiwork! Why did you want to hurt me? Why?"

The mysterious visitor said calmly, "It wasn't me. We are allies. It was Ning Zhiwei who did it."

However, Su Mingjin did not believe a word of it. "She was ambushed and unconscious on the spot. How could she have done it? There is no other person except you."

Although they are in a cooperative relationship, they do not trust each other and exploit each other.

The mysterious old man frowned and asked, "Su Mingjin, what good would it be for me to harm you?"

Su Mingjin knew that he was courting death, but he had to fight for wealth and fame, no matter how dangerous it was. "You want to be the emperor instead."

The mysterious old man chuckled, "You know nothing about our family. Our family is noble and unrivaled, and we don't want to be involved in those mundane affairs and lower our status in vain."

"Besides, when dynasties change, the royal family of the previous dynasty is often massacred and disappears in history, but our family has been passed down for thousands of years without interruption."

In other words, their family looked down on the royal family and only wanted to control it.

The arrogance is evident and not concealed at all.

Su Mingjin snorted coldly without commenting. He was extremely angry in his heart. The arrogance of the aristocratic families was really annoying. No wonder Ning Zhiwei couldn't tolerate them at all.

"Okay, according to the original plan, I will be responsible for attacking the city, and you will be responsible for dealing with Ning Zhiwei."

The mysterious old man's eyes were full of determination, "Don't worry, if we join forces, we will be invincible. As for Ning Zhiwei, she is dead."

Su Mingjin responded with a few words, then reminded, "The food is almost gone, send another batch over quickly."

The mysterious old man frowned, "It's only been a few days, and it's all eaten up?"

To Su Mingjin, the biggest role of this old man was to provide military pay. "You seem to have forgotten that we only gave him two days' rations."

In just two days, he had firmly grasped the army's lifeline. What a calculating maneuver.

You have to have your own food.

The mysterious old man had food in his hand, but he didn't want to give it to him so easily. "That's not a small amount."

Su Mingjin said impatiently, "The battle will start tomorrow and the soldiers will have no food to eat. You can do whatever you want."

The mysterious old man rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, I'll transfer another batch of food."

As soon as the old man left, Su Mingjin immediately called his confidant, "Keep an eye on his every move, and report anything as soon as possible."

"Yes."

Su Mingjin looked extremely serious, "Notify them to attack the city tomorrow."

The subordinate was shocked, "Tomorrow?"

"Yes, we will try to capture the capital within half a month." Su Mingjin said ambitiously, "I want to become the common ruler of the world and make everyone kneel at my feet."

While Ning Zhiwei was seriously injured, he wanted to take over the capital, and no one could stop him.

The confidant opened his mouth, but seeing his smug expression, he swallowed the words back and decided not to embarrass himself.

"Yes."

On the second day, Su Mingjin ordered the slaughter of chickens and sheep so that the soldiers could have a good meal.

Then, at the command, attack!

Su Mingjin personally supervised the battle and boosted morale. At the beginning, they were in high spirits and had the upper hand.

Su Mingjin was so excited that his blood boiled. He walked to the war drum himself, raised the mallet, and pounded it hard, making loud noises.

"Soldiers, charge! It's time for you to be rewarded with honors and promoted to higher positions."

The soldiers were deeply inspired and they rushed forward fearlessly, pushing the battlefield forward.

Seeing that the soldiers were about to climb up the city wall, Su Mingjin was overjoyed and followed them unconsciously.

The guards could not help but advise, "Your Majesty, be careful, don't follow too closely, it's dangerous."

Su Mingjin is not stupid. He values ​​his life more than anything else. "It's so far away that their arrows can't reach us."

That's right, even a sharpshooter can't hit it.

At this moment, countless stone bullets were thrown out from the tower, "boom boom."

It's a catapult!

But why can it be launched so far? This range is abnormal.

Su Mingjin watched the stone bullets coming towards him, his face changed drastically, he waved the whip, and hurriedly urged the horse to run back.

However, it was too late. The stone bullet hit the warhorse's foot. The horse felt pain, raised its hooves, and ran wildly, knocking Su Mingjin off the horse.

Su Mingjin fell heavily to the ground and gasped in pain. It hurt so much.

Before he could get up, the warhorse's hoof stepped down heavily and hit Su Mingjin's chest. He felt unbearable pain and his vision went black.

All this happened so fast that no one expected it.

The guards were terrified and rushed to rescue. They finally killed the war horse and rescued Su Mingjin.

Seeing Su Mingjin covered in blood, the guards turned pale with fear, "Your Majesty, are you okay?"

Su Mingjin was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. He was sweating profusely, his hair was wet, and he almost fainted.

The guards did not dare to help him, for fear of causing secondary injuries, and were extremely anxious.

Until the military doctor rushed over, took the emperor's pulse, his face changed drastically, "Not good, the emperor is seriously injured, bring a stretcher, carry the emperor away quickly."

When Su Mingjin was carried down, he had already fainted.

Someone shouted, "Su Mingjin is dead, Emperor Jiang is dead."

The deafening shouts rang out, and the Jiang Dynasty's soldiers were stunned. They stopped their attacks and looked around for the emperor.

Not found?!

If it is false, Your Majesty the Emperor, please stand up and shout.

But there was still no sound.

The morale was gone, and the soldiers turned and ran. The emperor was dead, so why were they fighting?

Who are we fighting for?

A mysterious old man and a group of people were watching the battle from a distance. They were dressed elegantly and looked very graceful, as if they were watching a play.

He was in high spirits at the beginning, chatting and laughing, but gradually his expression became worse and worse.

They watched as the battle situation suddenly turned around, from victory to defeat, and Su Mingjin was carried away, with no idea whether he was dead or alive.

Everyone looked confused. What on earth had happened?

The old man's face turned pale. Is Su Mingjin so useless?

A man next to him suddenly said, "The range of the catapult is wrong. It's beyond the normal range."

Everyone looked over at once, "What?"

The man frowned, "The catapult has been modified, and its attack range is longer."

"Does Yongguo have such a capability?"

The old man's expression gradually turned ugly, "It's the Yuan family."

"The Yuan family surrendered to the Yong Dynasty! They were originally from the Mohist family! The Mohist family was famous for its sieges."

Everyone suddenly realized that the Yuan family had become traitors! They had betrayed the family! They must be severely punished!

But, he was mediocre before and only came from a second-class family. How come he became so brilliant in Ning Zhiwei's hands?

"What did Ning Zhiwei do?"

Is there a possibility that it’s because of the aristocratic family?

The old man didn't have time to think about it and ordered, "Send someone to treat Su Mingjin. He can't die now. Hurry up."

The news soon reached Ning Zhiwei's ears, and she raised a cold smile, "Is he dead?"
